By/Association: All Day Buffett launches a really interesting new service designed to match creatives within discreet locations.

Why Foundation Ownership Might Be Bad for Newspapers: I personally have been really interested in whether news media makes more sense as a nonprofit and this is a fascinating suggestion that foundations might actually be bad at managing newspapers.

Everywun's 10,000 Tree Challenge: Everywun tries an interesting approach to new user acquisition - planting trees in honor of Earth Day. This sort of stuff is pushing marketing and advertising in different directions.

Nathaniel Whittemore is the founder of Assetmap. Previously he was the founding director of the Northwestern University Center for Global Engagement.
